3 way fridge

Took van out today but fridge appears not to be working - I know it takes a while to get cold but we did run for 1/2 hour so should have started getting cold!
Is there a fuse somewhere I can check? Our van is a 89 Holdsworth 3 conversion - the switch has three settings - battery/ electric link up/ 0 - Ive flipped it down to battery and made sure the main switch is set to touring - this is what I usually do - I have three trip switches that I have no idea what these are for and I've never touched them before. What do you think?

Thanks


Tony

How long should it take for the freezer bit to feel cold?

never used the gas - or heating - pretty sure everything works but ashamed to say we've only camped out two or three times in high summer over the years we've had our van. We take it out and just brew up somewhere nice either up the downs or down by the sea here on the Island. We have gone down to Cornwall and up to Durham in the past. Took it to North Devon for a few days last summer but stayed in a converted barn !!!!
